I'm using skype-2.2.0.25-fedora.i586.rpm here with as far as I can tell all functions working. Installed using 'urpmi --allow-nodeps skype-2.2.0.25-fedora.i586.rpm' This commandline was taken from a past on the Mandriva Cooker list. The date was 30 August 2009, poster was Peťoš Šafařík <[email protected]>. I've had no problems using this installation method since then. John NZ
